Where to find information about us and our products
You can find everything you need to know about us, Yorwaste Limited, trading as Yorganics, and our products on our website, or from our sales staff before you order. We also confirm the key information to you in writing after you order by email, or in your online account (where applicable).
When you buy from us you are agreeing that:
We only accept orders when we’ve checked them
We contact you to confirm we’ve received your order and we accept it when we dispatch or supply the product to you.
Sometimes we reject orders
Sometimes we reject orders, for example, because a product is unexpectedly out of stock, because a credit reference we have obtained is unsatisfactory, because you are located outside our delivery areas, as stated on our website, or because the product was mispriced by us. When this happens, we let you know as soon as possible and refund any sums you have paid.
We charge you when we accept your order
However, for some products we may take payment at regular intervals, as will be explained to you during the order process. As your product is goods, you will own it once we have received payment in full.
We charge interest on late payments
If we’re unable to collect any payment you owe us we charge interest on the overdue amount at the rate of 5% a year above the Bank of England base rate from time to time. This interest accrues on a daily basis from the due date until the date of actual payment of the overdue amount, whether before or after judgment. You pay us the interest together with any overdue amount.
We pass on increases in VAT
If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date we supply the product, we adjust the rate of VAT that you pay, unless you have already paid in full before the change in the rate of VAT takes effect.
We’re not responsible for delays outside our control
If our supply of your product is delayed by an event outside our control, we contact you as soon as possible to let you know and do what we can to reduce the delay. As long as we do this, we won’t compensate you for the delay, but if the delay is likely to be substantial you can contact our Customer Service Team by phoning 0845 300 8889 to end the contract and receive a refund for any products you have paid for in advance, but not yet received.
Products can vary slightly from their pictures
A product’s true colour may not exactly match that shown on your device or in our marketing or its packaging may be slightly different.
We charge you if you don’t give us information we need
We charge you additional sums if you don’t give us information we’ve asked for about how we can access your property for delivery, or if we ask you to confirm you will be available to collect the goods on delivery. For example, we might need to re-deliver on another vehicle or with extra manpower, these additional costs will be passed onto you.
